Denny’s plans still underway

Aberdeen Mayor Bill Simpson says that after years of rumors, Denny’s will be returning soon.

Simpson announced at the City Council Meeting last night that the owner of the franchise has been working on returning.

Simpson said that he had talked to the new District Manager for Denny’s saying, “Corporate was having some issues with the new designs inside their building, so they have just gotten all their approvals. Work should soon start.”

In December 2011 the restaurant was abruptly closed. The diner’s owner, who had changed the business from a Denny’s to an America’s Diner, told employees about the closure with a note on the door.

Simpson also said that construction on a new O’Reilly’s building has begun and AutoZone has plans underway as well.
